Louis-Vincent Thomas (20 May 1922 – 22 January 1994) was a French sociologist, anthropologist, ethnologist, and scholar whose specialty was Africa. He was the founder of thanatology. After having taught at Cheikh Anta Diop University, he became a sociology professor at Paris Descartes University.

His writings deal with socialism, burials, and systems of thought in sub-Saharan Africa. He conducted comparative studies on death in Western culture and African culture. He often denounced the idea that anthropology and sociology are separate areas of study.

Quotes by Louis-Vincent Thomas (?)

“Yo sé que el hombre es capaz de trascender en ciertos momentos el espacio y el tiempo, y a veces el espacio y el tiempo juntos y que es verdaderamente un ser espiritual capaz de desafiar la muerte.”

“Con el fin de explotar mejor al otro (arrebatarle sus tierras, utilizar a bajo costo su fuerza de trabajo, si es posible gozar de sus mujeres), basta negarle el título de hombre y rehusarle el derecho a parecerse a nosotros: porque permitirle a un indio que sobreviva y que viva libremente, sería reconocerle implícitamente a alguien como nosotros el derecho a ser como nosotros y admitir por ello que nosotros no somos el prototipo de lo humano.”

“Silenciar la muerte es muy mala estrategia, pues nada más angustiante que lo desconocido, o que lo reprimido cuando se despierta.”
